“The NLRB just can’t hide its gross infatuation with Big Labor. The decision rendered in Atlanta Opera restores previous Board case law that was rejected by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. This decision is the latest sweepstakes-style giveaway to Big Labor by the Biden administration. Ultimately, it will lead more independent contractors to become classified as employees and eligible to be unionized.

“The vast majority of independent contractors prefer their current status because of their independence and flexible work arrangements. Decimating independent contractor opportunities does not help workers – it limits opportunities and harms numerous small businesses and entrepreneurial startups that drive job growth in the United States. Once again, the NLRB has failed to read the room – and it shows.”
